Publisher's Synopsis
The first biography of the enigmatic coach who has completely transformed the fortunes of the England rugby team. When Eddie Jones began coaching England's rugby team in November 2015, they won 22 of their next 23 matches. The side that limped out of the last World Cup was thoroughly revitalised. But who is the enigmatic figure responsible for this change of fortune? From his school days playing alongside the legendary Ella brothers to his masterminding of Japan's jaw-dropping victory over South Africa in the 2015 World Cup, Eddie Jones has always been a polarising figure, known for his punishing work ethic. Drawing on hundreds of interviews with former teammates, players and colleagues, veteran rugby writer Mike Colman brings a rare level of insight to his biography of this singular man.
